Oliver died at the young age of 19, just a few years after the tragic death of his father, Paul.
In an exclusive interview with MailOnline, Jake elaborated on his struggles with anxiety and grief.
He said: “I always struggled with anxiety, but I never really knew what it was. When I lost my father over ten years ago and my brother nearly ten years ago, I wondered why It all makes sense if I feel that way.
“I started worrying about things and overthinking them. I was worried about my own health. If you’ve lost two people to cancer and your mother is suffering from skin cancer, all sorts of lumps and bumps.” I am very open about my health concerns.
